allspice

Allspice, also known as Jamaica pepper, myrtle pepper, or pimento, is the dried unripe berry of Pimenta dioica tree.
Allspice, also known as Jamaica pepper, myrtle pepper, pimenta, or pimento, is the dried unripe berry of Pimenta dioica, a midcanopy tree native to the Greater Antilles, southern Mexico, and Central America, now cultivated in many warm parts of the world. The name "allspice" was coined as early as 1621 by the English, who valued it as a spice that combined the flavours of cinnamon, nutmeg, and clove.

    Recipe Chocolate Quinoa Porridge with Allspice & Cinnamon

    0.5 tsp of Allspice with 0.25 tsp of cinnamon is good. I wasn't so keen on cardamom or cumin, but may try black pepper. Would you leave the cloves as they are or grind them? At what point would I add them to the recipe? I have some mace leaves which don't grind well. When should I add them? I...

    There are some interesting things about making your own mustard: it will be spicier than the kind you buy at a store it will also be more bitter. The reason for both of those things is because cracking open a mustard seed releases something intensely flavorful. While I have seen some mustard...

    Another of my time old recipes, undated but back to the last centaury... :whistle: I love this one because it uses nettles, but if you don't have any nettles around, then spinach and sorrel leaves will also work, as would any other fresh greens. But Spring is the time of year to pick nettles...

    Recipe Pontack

    Another recipe which uses allspice. Pontack is a very old English recipe for a savoury sauce (some say its a little like Worcestershire sauce). It very 'in season' here as it is made from Elderberries. It keeps for years (apparently). Its served mainly with game. But I can't see why it wouldn't...

    Another recipe developed in my quest to use allspice more often! I was very pleased by this one, as the combination of allspice and cinnamon is quite magical.
